On 4-05-12 at approximately 7:30 PM, Deputies from the Mendocino County Sheriff's Office were dispatched to the EZ Living Trailer Park at 19922 N. Hwy 101 in Willits. The female victim reported that her estranged husband had held a knife to her throat and threatened her. She also complained of pain to her hand.

Deputies contacted the Male Suspect Miguel Lopez-Rubio and found that he had poured gasoline on himself, intending to set himself on fire. The gasoline soaked clothing he had been wearing were laying on the floor of the residence. The suspect told Deputies that he decided not to light himself on fire when the unlit gasoline hurt his skin.

Lopez-Rubio was arrested for domestic violence and assault with a deadly weapon and transported to County Jail in Ukiah.
